Jonboy my friend, above is the link to your group. Posting roll is a little confusing. You'll probably mess it up. Someone will fix it. The only way, dude read this carefully... The only way to fuck up roll call is to not try. Go to the page and get your name on the list.

When I joined this site I was a blubbering mess. I thought posting roll sounded stupid and lame. That was 1,150 days ago. Trust me. Trust us. Join us. We can help you do something that will take every bit of strength you have. Let us help.

I started sneaking when I was 9 years old, the candy snuff (gold river, happy days) moving on to Copenhagen by the time I was 15. It has always been my clutch, when ever things would get tense, I'd just put a rub in. My wife of 20 years has begged me to quit, even agreeing to new toys (ATV, motorcycles) if Id quit. The thing was, I NEVER wanted to quit, until now. The company I work for instituted a policy for our insurance that cost me more ($3/day) for my coverage. That was my driving force, my habit was now going to cost me approximately $10 a day. My insurance does pay 100% for Chantix so I started taking it 8 days ago, threw out all my snuff of the 14th (my grandma's bithday), and have asked my wife to overlook any moodiness for the next dew weeks.
Good job getting on here, that's only a start! Now it's time to get pissed off and get committed like you never have before. Get pissed at the shit for stealing your time, hurting your health, grabbing your money, affecting your relationships and hundreds of other negative things impacted by the can. Get committed to the May quit group, learn to log into your group every day and post roll, no matter what, first thing and make your promise to stay quit for that day. One day at a time. Get involved, connect with some other guys outside the forum via digits so you can text and watch each other's backs. This is serious business and your life, our lives depend on it. You can do this!

It's hard because it's an addiction, bro... not a habit. Nicotine is one of the nastiest substances on earth. The addiction has been equated to that of heroin... its potency equal to strychnine and rattlesnake venom.

You found the right place, now... do it the right way. Get involved and stay involved. It works...
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

Jonboy - welcome!

This site will save your life, if you let it. Quitting is hard. Very. Quitting as a team is so much better than quitting alone. Your wife cannot understand how addictive nicotine is unless she has quit. It is as addictive as heroin, and a tin of your Cope is = to 3 packs of cigs. Once you join your group and post roll, which is the key to success, you will be in a band of bros fighting the same demon at the same time. The posts in that group will remind you that you aren't alone. And that you can do this. And you can do it.

Congratulations sir. Post roll. Today you are winning.
